Humans have always been searching for quicker and easier ways to get around About 10,000 years ago,
we built canoes made from logs of wood, while on land we started riding horses around 4.000 BC Roughly
500 years later, we invented the wheel, which led to carts and wagons, and at almost the same time, theEgyptians invented the sailing boat
Up until the 18th century most people travelled by sailing boat, horse or stagecoach, but in 1769, there was
a major breakthrough when the Scottish inventor James Watt invented the steam engine In 1783, the French
inventor Claude de Jouffroy used this to build the first steamboat, and in 1804 the Englishman Richard
Trang 4Trevithick constructed the first steam-powered train Railways helped carry coal around Britain and were animportant part of the Industrial Revolution.
Another major breakthrough came when Karl Benz built the first working car in 1885 Then, in 1903,Orville and Wilbur Wright built the first aeroplane These two inventions shaped the 20th century Over time,cars and plane travel became cheaper so that by the 70s a lot of families owned a car and many were
holidaying abroad.
Nowadays, companies are developing self-driving cars and we will soon be able to take trips into space.The fascinating story of transportation continues and who knows how we'll be getting around in the future
